Greetings all,

I'm trying to get a CQL filter working which can filter out data that's
older than X amount from the present, for example, only return data from
less than 5 days ago.

Following the docs regarding temporal predicates, I can get close:
https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/filter/ecql_reference.html#temporal-predicate

I would like to have something like, "time during P5D / PRESENT" where
PRESENT is the current date and time.

The closest I can find on this is a GIS stack exchange question where
someone is trying to do similar, but on that post there's no true answer,
as it's said that PRESENT is purely a WMS filter, not available in CQL:
https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/314882/wfs-how-to-do-relative-dates

This seems to be true trying it out. If I put today's date in manually, it
works exactly as I want it to. However, I want to do it based on the
present without a need to adjust the CQL filter.

Is there any way of accomplishing this? Or a close workaround?

One idea I'm pondering is if the results can be returned in descending
order by date, and just having a feature limit, but that may not have date
precision, just a vague "recently", which may not be ideal.

Cheers,
Travis
